TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM TPMS
WITH EASY FILL TIRE ALERT
A Tire Pressure Low – Add Air warning
message will appear in the vehicle information
display
1
and the low tire pressure warning
light
2
will illuminate when one or
more tires are low in pressure and air
is needed.
• The tire pressures should be checked when the
tires are cold. The tires are considered cold after the vehicle
has been parked for 3 hours or more or driven less than 1 mi
(1.6 km) at moderate speeds.
When adding air to an under-inflated tire, the TPMS with Easy Fill
Tire Alert provides visual and audible signals to help you inflate the
tire to the recommended COLD tire pressure.
To use the Easy Fill Tire Alert system:
1. Move the shift lever to the P (PARK) position and apply the parking brake.
2. Place the ignition switch in the ON position. Do not start the engine.
3. Add air to the under-inflated tire, and within a few seconds, the hazard warning
lights will start flashing.
4. When the designated tire pressure is reached, the horn will beep once and the
hazard warning flashers will stop.
5. Repeat this procedure for any additional under-inflated tires.
After tire pressures are adjusted, drive the vehicle at speeds above 16 mph (25 km/h).
The Tire Pressure Low – Add Air warning message and low tire pressure warning
light will extinguish.
When the low tire pressure warning light flashes for approximately 1 minute and then
remains on, the TPMS is not functioning properly. Have the system checked by a
NISSAN dealer.
Tire pressure rises and falls depending on the heat caused by the vehicle’s operation
and the outside temperature. Low outside temperature can lower the temperature of
the air inside the tire, which can cause a lower tire inflation pressure. This may cause
the low tire pressure warning light to illuminate. If the warning light illuminates, check
the tire pressure in your tires.
• Check the tire pressure (including the spare tire) often and always prior to long
distance trips.
The Tire and Loading Information label contains valuable information. Please refer to
the “Technical and consumer information (section 9)” in your Owner’s Manual for the
location of the Tire and Loading Information label.
For more information, refer to the “Instruments and controls (section 2)”, the “Starting and driving (section 5)”
and the “Maintenance and do-it-yourself (section 8)” of your Owner’s Manual.
